Connect To Foreign Tables

2007-10-04 Thread James Card
The application I'm working on uses MySQL 5.0.41 and we also need to  
retrieve some data from a SQL-Server database in another department.  
SQL-Server has a feature (that I haven't tested) that allows it to make an  
ODBC connection to a foreign database and treat its tables as if they were  
local.


Is there any way to accomplish something similar in MySQL? I'd love to be  
able to create a view that joins data from my local tables with that from  
SQL_Server.

Re: How to change "long_query_time" with mySql 3.23

2007-10-04 Thread Baron Schwartz
I wouldn't be surprised if this feature is broken in 3.23.  You said you 
installed it yourself.  Can you possibly upgrade to 4.1 instead?

However, there are tons of lines like this one:

# Query_time: 0  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 1  Rows_examined: 20


This is not a slow query, is it?

Try to remove the spaces in the two lines. If my memory is correct, I had the
same problem some time ago and it went away when removing the spaces.

MySQL Manager Issue

2007-10-04 Thread Jesse
Sorry for posting this here, but 1) I didn't see a 3rd party MySQL list, and 
2) I tried several times to post a support ticket on the SQLManager.net 
site, and it simply would not save my ticket. There doesn't seem to be any 
other way to request support from them either, except through their broken 
Support Ticket system.


Anywhere, here's my question.  I'm hoping that someone out there uses the 
MySQL Manager 2007 tool in Windows to visually manager their MySQL 
Databases, and can answer this question.


When I'm typing in a query, it is constantly annoying me by popping up 
function, table, or field suggestions as I type.  I have to constantly press 
the escape key to get rid of the box.  Is there some way to turn this 
"feature" off that anyone's aware of?


Thanks,
Jesse

How to change "long_query_time" with mySql 3.23

Hi.

I installed mySQL on '/usr/local/mysql', and works ok. But if I insert

-
log-slow-queries = /usr/local/mysql/log/slow-queries.log
long_query_time = 5

Does anybody know how to set the slow queries time? Thank you very much.

Re: single line inserts with on duplicate key

Scott Haneda wrote:

Is it possible, in single-line inserts, with on duplicate key clauses, to
get back a list of last insert id's for what was inserted?

I get strange results, just one single insert id, which makes sense from the
perspective of what was just inserted, however, I need to know what the
returned insert id is for each of an arbitrary amount of single-line
inserts.

Defining what I am calling single line insets, I mean:
INSERT INTO foo (a, b, c) VALUES ('x', 'y', 'x'), ('x', 'y', 'x'), ('x',
'y', 'x'), etc etc


I know of no way to do this.
